Dynamics of lasers coupled by nearest-neighbor interaction

ORAL

Abstract

The dynamics of arrays of nonlinear oscillators with diffusive coupling are investigated. The types of coupling needed to achieve synchronization are explored. The effects of time-delayed coupling are also considered. The results have implications for the production of coherent radiation in lasers and with suitable modification of the equations may be extended to biological networks.
